Created in 1960 by expert dairy masters at Lattebusche in Veneto, Italy, this magnificent cheese is well known and highly appreciated all over the world. Piave Vecchio (meaning Aged) enhances the already sweet, rich flavor of young Piave through the process of maturing. It has the texture of a young Parmigiano-Reggiano, not crystalline yet nor dry enough for grating, but heading in that direction. It has the toasted walnut character of Gruyere and the caramel-like sweetness of an aged Gouda. Produced entirely from milk from the mountainous part of Veneto, this cheese, served as a table cheese or shredded over polenta, is an ideal choice for anyone who enjoys healthy, all-natural, traditional Northern Italian food.

Fast delivery, packed beautifully and the Piave cheese is even better than ever. I would shop here again

Piave Vecchio

I absolutely, positively love this cheese! It goes so well with a good bottle of dry red or white wine, crackers or bread. So good! I love it and I could eat this cheese every day!

One of the best cheeses

I absolutely love this cheese... it's hard but not too hard, and when it crumbles at all, it's in nice shingles, the flavor is light, with a hint of citrus, goes amazing with chacuterie, and cheddars.

Good cheese

Love the texture, not as hard and crumbly as Parmiggiano-Reggiano. Like to snack on it. Sweetness and nuttiness is just right.

Piave Vecchio - Wonderful

The first few times I purchased this cheese at Costo. Now I can't so I was glad to see it offered through Amazon in smaller quantities - didn't have to buy a whole or half wheel. It is the most wonderful cheese, shredded for pasta, veggies, yes and even chicken. The best way to eat it though is just to cut of a chunk.

Nice flavor

This cheese lived up to its description I used it as a table cheese. Very good. I would definitely purchase this cheese again

Piave Vecchio Cheese Just like the Cheese we had in Rome

This is just like the cheese we purchased from a local cheese shop in Rome. We did not know the name because our Italian is very poor. The cheese is very good on a mild and crisp cracker.
